Personally i think Denman is a great choice, but Luke is also a guy i like to listen to. Vic and Collmus round out my top picks.

I wish that you NY guys would get your wish and draft Dooley from the minor leagues out here. Before the end of the first season you'd be taking pencils and stabbing them in your ears to relieve the pain. "and now it's Bootlicker with a wide and hopeful run". blech!
How do you not like Dooley, for the first time all year I heard him call a horse the wrong name, it was the 4 horse on the turf, I think it was Sunday......he does use the wide and hopeful run thing but I like that because he is basically saying "Yo Jock, what the hell are you doing 5 wide"
